Sending an array from Function 1 to Function 2

I am trying to send an array from a parent function (not shown) to a child function (see below, configCheck). When I call configCheck from the main script, it works fine. But when I call it from within menuBdcGuide, there is an error.

The log shows that the split has not happened. When configCheck is called directly, the log shows:

Checking database accounts
Checking database configuration

But when it is run from another function, instead what we see is:

Checking database (accounts configuration)

Which means that the code to create the array has not worked correctly.

How can I fix this so I can call configCheck from within my other function? My guess is that the IFS might have to be different. This would be fine, because configCheck is never called directly; it's only ever used from within functions.
